House-cured smoked salmon sits atop a freshly baked bagel slathered with cream cheese, finished with capers and thin slices of red onion. This version stands out through the in-house curing process that gives the lox a balanced smokiness and firm texture unlike mass-produced options. The bagel provides a chewy contrast to the silky fish and briny capers, with portions generous enough for a hearty brunch. Food enthusiasts note the harmonious layering of flavors that keeps brunch crowds returning.
